Install the Skillsoft Course Manager

The first time you download a course for offline play, you will be prompted to install the Skillsoft Course manager (SCM). You only have to install the SCM once; however, you must download content for each course you want to take offline.

To install the SCM

1. Locate the asset that you want to download by:
   • browsing the Library,
   • viewing your assignments in your learning plan, or
   • viewing your assignments from your learner transcript.
2. Click the down arrow next to Launch and click Download. A new window opens and you are prompted to install the SCM.
3. Click OK to begin installation of the SCM.
4. In the Language list, select a language for the SCM, and click Install.
5. On the Download Skillsoft Course Manager page, do the following:
   1. Click Show License, read the license agreement that appears in a separate window, and then select the check box to indicate your agreement to its terms.
   2. Specify the installation options:
      • Install All Content Players: If you select this option, you will not have to download a course-specific player when you download course content later.
      • Install Help Files: Downloads the SCM Help documentation.
      • Install and enable Accessibility support: Installs and enables section 508 support. If you select this option, the ability to select lessons and topics in courses is disabled.
6. Click Continue to begin the installation.

   There may be a delay while the installation application downloads. The installation time depends on your network speed and the options you specified.

7. When the installation is complete, click OK in the pop-up notification window.
8. Close and reopen your browser.
9. Sign back in to Skillport.

The SCM initializes itself.
